The Role of Visualization in Manifestation and Creation

We are all quite aware that visualization is an essential part of the manifestation and creation process. Next to setting a clear intent or taking physical action to achieve your goals, it can be the most important part of manifestation.

Why?

Because when we visualize an outcome, it allows us to imagine what it would feel like if it actually happened. It’s important, however, to note that you should visualize the intended outcome in the first person – as if you are living it out – so you can really experience what it will feel like. It is that very feeling – that experience that we feel when we visualize and imagine what things will be like when we have what we so very much desire – that is precisely the same energy that we send out into the Universe as our request to be answered.

So imagine what you desire in as full a capacity as possible. Do whatever you can to get into the feeling of it and hold that feeling as long as possible. Use all your senses in your imagination – see, hear, touch, taste, and FEEL the outcome as real as you possibly can. Savor it, enjoy it, feel it for everything it’s worth, and then send that energy out into the Universe as your prayer to be answered!

Does visualization work for everyone?

To be honest, no, it doesn’t. Some people’s manifestation techniques and processes do not need visualization to create a desired outcome. But some people need it very much. This is similar to the concept of how we learn – some individuals are visual learners, some are auditory, and some are kinesthetic. We each have our own way of both learning AND creating.

This goes back to an article I wrote back in December – How to Manifest a Happy Life in 2012 – where I talked about how each one of us has our own unique manifestation process, and no, it’s not the same for everyone. Some people are just going to be better at imagining and visualizing and utilizing that energy to create here in the physical. And there’s nothing wrong with that. We are who we are and what resonates with us does so for a reason and there’s nothing wrong with that. That is what makes us all unique.

Additionally, for some of us who really do need to utilize visualization as a part of our manifestation technique, often we are blocked in fully utilizing our visualization capabilities by some form of negative energy that must be cleared. And I’m sure you can imagine that this might really block the manifestation process for some individuals, because it is such a necessary component for them.

How do you know if visualization is important for you?

Are you a visual learner? Do you like to use your imagination? When you do use your imagination, does it come to you naturally? Can you get fully into what you are imagining without a problem? Do you use all of your senses when you are visualizing?

If you said yes to most of these, using visualization is probably going to be an essential part of your manifestation and creation process. And it’s really important that you know whether it is or not, or else you will not be able to manifest effectively, no matter how hard you try.

So, how successfully do you use visualization? Try out using your imagination today to create something you desire in your life and see how it goes!
